Why do we mistake downloading new productivity apps for actually getting organized?

I used to spend entire Sundays migrating my tasks from Notion to Todoist, then to Obsidian, convinced that this was the app that would finally make me superhuman.

It didn't change my output, but it gave me a massive dopamine hit of feeling productive without doing a single hard task. It felt like "optimizing my workflow," but it was just a fancy form of procrastination.

Have you ever fallen into the trap of endlessly setting up systems instead of just doing the work?
